Liam Delap And Mamadou Sarr To Start; Nicolas Jackson On The Bench: Chelsea Predicted Lineup Vs Los Angeles FC

Chelsea kick off their Club World Cup campaign against MLS side Los Angeles FC on Monday.

Head coach Enzo Maresca may be tempted to start several of his new signings who were included in the squad that has travelled out to the United States.

Of course, a balance has to be struck. It is another opportunity to win a trophy after all, but this is undoubtedly a tournament where the squad will need to be used to its fullest extent.

Some of these players have already played close to 50 games this season so rotation over the next few weeks will be key.
